This guy is amazing. His enthusiasm brings a smile to your face. I wonder how it would work on palms to keep bugs away and supercharge growth. Very cool

Thanks for sharing. I bet it would be great on palms.

Aaron I like the fact the Veggies have no bugs or critters. This guy might be on to something good for all of us.

I agree, I think I might try and makes some tea this summer.

I never had that "air bubbler" in the bottom when I made compost tea from horse and cow manure years ago.
But it's true that stuff never burns plants.
Used compost tea during my pre-palm-nut days when all I had was a veggie garden.

Suspended a burlap sack, filled with manure, in a garbage bucket of water, kept adding water as I used the "tea" to water veggies.

John, during your summer visit, we can go collect poop at the big ranch next door.
Bring boots.

And more beer.

Aaron. Look forward to seeing your tea experiment. Barb the air bubbler must be an important part to his magic tea. I think I still have my shit boots from when I was a kid selling manure

I like the beer part better! Tim I think the fact they get 20+ hours of daylight late spring early summer also helped making that leak monster sized.

you sold manure? cool!
Tell today's kids that and they'd sneer and wait for allowance to land in their pocket!

Reminder: charge camera batteries --> John trying to get his feet into size 4 boots.
